Your Majesty will suffer

The capital of Shu is rich and prosperous, and the world knows it!Today's stability and prosperity are really the result of decades of Nangong's hard work and dedication to help the people.

When the former Shu Kingdom fell, Chengdu was devastated, and the people had nothing to eat.Nangong Shoucheng has witnessed the suffering of the people, and he knows that the perverse actions of the former Shu have caused the people to complain!As the saying goes, "If you win the people, you win the world!" If he wants to win the hearts of the people, he can only share the suffering with the people and apply benevolent policies!Because I have been in Shu for nearly [-] years and have never been self-reliant, one is naturally afraid of giving birth to the population and causing military disasters; Proclaiming the emperor is of course useless to win the hearts of the people!

In order to show his determination to share the suffering with the people, after Nangong Shoucheng entered Chengdu, he did not live in the former Shu Palace. Instead, he temporarily set up the former Duke’s mansion as a camp, lived here, and later renovated it, which is the current Shu Palace.As for the magnificent and ingenious Shu Palace, which gathered the blood, tears and righteous indignation of the people of Shuchuan, it survived in the end. It has become a scenic spot, and it is an excellent place to enjoy gardens and flowers in Chengdu!

In the north of Chengdu, walk halfway along the bustling and noisy Quyuan Street, turn into Wenhua Street where there are many government offices, and a hundred feet to the north is the Shu Palace.

The royal palace was rebuilt from the official residence of the previous dynasty, and no large-scale construction projects have been carried out. Among them, the Jinghe and Xingsi halls are the tallest and widest, and they are used for court meetings and banquets. It is no more than three or four feet high and no more than ten steps wide, and it is not much different from the pavilions of rich and noble folk.

On the contrary, the two stone lions in front of the palace gate are huge and vigorous.It is rumored that the number of conch hairs on the heads of stone lions in Shu has always been less than 39, because the stone lions in front of the palace of the Shu Kingdom only have forty conch hairs, how can the comers overstep?Then some people joked that the power of the King of Shu can be seen in the stone lions!

Just after the hour, a carriage hurried through Wenhua Street and entered the palace gate.Sitting in the car was Xiao Langjun who had just been picked up by his family at Yaoxian Pavilion on Huanhua Street --- Nangongji, the son of King Shu!

The son is fifteen years old, with outstanding appearance and extraordinary intelligence, but he is just at the age when he wants to have fun, and he doesn't pay much attention to poetry and books. When he has free time on weekdays, he tries to find ways to play around.It's just that today I seem to be a little carried away, and I haven't returned all night!

The son is quite decadent at this time, not because of fatigue, but because he is full of worry: the servant just informed that it was his father Nangong Dechong who sent someone out of the palace to look for him. It is inevitable to be punished this time.

The carriage drove into the main gate, and there was already a yellow gate waiting here, saying that the great king had moved to the Linfu Hall after he came down to court, and ordered His Highness to return to the palace as soon as he returned!

Nangongji walked slowly all the way, hesitating.His father was always gentle and seldom angry, but it was just like this that made Nan Gongji even more disturbed, wondering what kind of thunderous scene his father would have if he really got angry.

In Linfu Hall, Nangong De Chong, King of Shu, was immersed in reading the memorabilia.Nangong Ji went straight into the hall and knelt down to plead guilty.

De Chong raised his head and glanced down, then said calmly, "Are you back?" There was no joy or anger in his voice.

Nangong Ji lowered his head and said: "My child knows I was wrong, please forgive me."

De Chong still said indifferently: "Where is the mistake?"

Nan Gongji was startled, and dared not answer for a while.

De Chong didn't press too hard, he lowered his eyes to continue reading the memorial, and said slowly: "I don't know, so I'll think about it here, and I'll talk after I think it through."

His father's intention was to teach him to think about his mistakes here, Nangong Ji knew it well, and he dared not disobey it.It's just that after playing around for a whole day and night, at this moment when it suddenly became quiet, he became tired, knelt for a while, his eyelids became heavier, he couldn't help closing his eyes, and his thoughts became blurred. . .

When De Chong raised his head again, he saw his son dozing off on his knees. He was naturally annoyed, but after the annoyance passed, he couldn't help feeling a little unbearable, and sighed softly: "Confucius said it well, killing without teaching is called cruelty!"If a son makes mistakes, whoever teaches himself, as a father, is also guilty of not teaching him!Thinking of it this way, most of the anger went away.

In Nangongji's haze, he seemed to hear someone's voice whispering, and he woke up instantly!Looking up, I saw my father looking at me solemnly, my heart sank, and I lowered my head again.

De Chongling picked him up and asked, "Where did you go wrong, can you figure it out now?"

Nangongji pondered for a while, but fortunately he was quick-witted, and the next moment he came to his senses, and quickly poured out the stack of drafts he had prepared earlier.

When De Chong heard about it, he was noncommittal.After pausing for a moment, he said, "Is that all?"

Nangong Ji blushed, and looked at his father full of apprehension.

De Chong flicked his sleeves: "You eat all day long, but you don't pay attention to it. I think it's because I didn't encourage you too much! When I was young, my teachers praised you for being smart, and I thought you were very talented, so I didn't supervise you, but I didn't want you to grow up and have no ambition You know, to actually do such unrestrained and disrespectful things today, it can be seen that you are already extremely frivolous and frivolous!"

Nangongji silently accepted the reprimand, not daring to show his air.What my father said was true, and for a moment he felt that he was not motivated, and he was very ashamed.

After reprimanding him, De Chong saw that he probably knew his mistake, and he was really tired after a whole night's rest, so he was not in a hurry to punish him, so he said: "I will restrain you in the future, don't forget that there will be no next time. !" He told him to go back and wait for disposal.

Watching his son leave, De Chong still couldn't relax in his heart. He pushed away the memorial book spread out in front of him, got up and paced under the window.

Looking out from the window, a layer of helplessness gradually appeared in Wen Run's eyes.

He, Nangong Dechong, has sat on the throne of Shu for twenty years, and he is now in his forties. I think that when he first ascended the throne, Ji'er had not yet been born. It has been more than ten years, and now Ji'er will have his hair tied. Years, really time flies, time flies!

At the beginning, when he was a young man, how could he not be pretentious, thinking that with his diligence and talent, it would be easy to conquer and rejuvenate the country, and even expanding the territory and subjugating the barbarians must be a must!However, the [-] years of wasting in governing Shu finally made him wake up from his dream and recognize the present. Every time he thinks of the frivolity and shallowness of his youth, he feels unbearable.

Everyone in the world only knows that the land of Shu is prosperous, but how many people know the troubles hidden under this glamorous appearance? !

The Jiannan Road where Shu is located is steep and dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. It has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times, and it is rich and prosperous. The various ministries of Tubo are really arrogant, cunning, shameless and greedy!It is easy to cause troubles at the border, seek wealth and plunder the land. Although the kings of Shu in the past dynasties have worked hard to garrison the western border with elite soldiers, they have not hesitated to spend a lot of money to buy and appease them, so that they can find peace for a while. !

Besides internal worries, everyone knows that the Li, Han, Yuwen, and Murong clans were the heroes of the Shu king's Dingshu, and they can be called the humerus of the court!Over the past few decades, these four clans have stood at the center of the court, and the climate has become established, and the power is overwhelming!

The so-called meritorious master, among the four clans, especially the two clans of Yuwen and Murong, have not been ministers for a long time, and they also know that the master is jealous. Instead of relying on others, sitting and watching God's will, and letting others kill and seize, it is better to take advantage of the power and pull the master down. , Divide the world again!It's just that the Nangong family has been established in the middle of Sichuan for decades, so how can it be easily shaken?So for a long time, there have been open and secret struggles between the monarch and his ministers.

In all previous confrontations, although the king of Shu had the upper hand, he won reluctantly, and sometimes he hurt himself, so he was unable to cut the grass and roots.

In fact, compared with the foreign aggression for the purpose of seeking money, this decades-long internal strife is even more depressing!

Trapped by external and internal troubles one after another for twenty years, Nangong Dechong can be said to have exhausted all his organs and worked every step of the way.Today, I saw that my eldest son, who was the most proud of him, is still like an ignorant boy. He is so absorbed in having fun and does not think about making progress. How can it not make people sigh? !Thinking about others and myself, I suddenly remembered myself 20 years ago. At that time, I thought that governing the country was as easy as reading a new book or writing a new article!Really reckless!

Besides, Nan Gongji went back to his room to rest and had nothing to say for half a day.In the evening, the father sent someone to send a verbal order: From now on, the son must go to the court to pre-government, and after the court, he must stay in the Provincial Palace to listen to the ministers' speeches until noon, and in the afternoon, he will go to Wenyuan Pavilion to listen to books as usual!

Nangongji naturally groaned inwardly when he heard this, as a result, he would be shut up in the palace all day long, with a bunch of old and sour officials and wives as companions!

The author has something to say:

After repairing and repairing again and again, I am really entangled and entangled. . .
